Installation Guide

Installing Your Posts
Driving Posts
Driving posts in rocky soil require that the post be driven with a roofing tin used as protection to the
bottom of post while driving. The tin will fold up around post bottom while driving.
In regular soil conditions pre-drill, a pilot hole prior to driving.
Driver should have flat surface impacting top of post.
Concreting Posts
Mark post locations per diagram using 96 max or less post centers. (Remember factory sealed inside
bottom cap end goes in ground).
Set posts per diagram and let concrete cure 1 day.
Top your posts using a string line and install your top cap.
Using Fasteners on your Posts
Our plastic seals around all fasteners and our non-toxic Borate treatment protects the wood. You
should never let the head of the fastener penetrate under the coating as this will void the warranty.
Make sure the head of the fastener is secured tightly against the coating and your installation will be
perfect. On bolts, you should always use washers on both ends and never countersink the head of
the bolt. Remember factory sealed inside bottom cap is always on bottom of post.
